[go] Alert: Proposal to obsolete GO:0050516: inositol polyphosphate multikinase activity that impacts existing annotations

[Eurie Hong]

The proposal has been made to obsolete GO:0050516: inositol  
polyphosphate multikinase activity.

There exists annotations to this term as follows (data from AmiGO):
* SGD: 1 object
* TAIR: 2 objects
* Flybase: 1 object
* MGI: 1 object
* RGD: 1 object

The term is used in the following mappings:
ec2go:EC:2.7.1.151 > GO:inositol polyphosphate multikinase activity ;  
GO:0050516
metacyc2go:MetaCyc:2.7.1.151-RXN > GO:inositol polyphosphate  
multikinase activity ; GO:0050516

The reason for this proposal is that this activity is currently  
defined as catalyzing two sequential reactions based on a gene  
product.  However, "inositol polyphosphate multikinase activity" in  
some organisms can catalyze additional reactions.  In addition, the  
reactions listed in the definition can be catalyzed independently by  
other gene products.

UNLESS OBJECTIONS ARE RECEIVED BY 7th January WE WILL ASSUME THAT YOU  
AGREE TO THIS CHANGE.
